demarcation of each building.

The SMATV video distribution system shall be designed to provide a turn-key solution that includes

video hardware, cables and any ancillary materials necessary for the delivery of video from the

building demarcation point to each WAO. UNIVERSITY ITS shall approve the design of the SMATV

video system before the release of the bid package.

Student housing video distribution systems differ from academic video distribution systems as they

utilize addressable interdiction systems, where academic systems employ traditional passive

equipment.

All splitters, directional couplers, taps or other active or passive devices are to be confined within

TRs. No equipment shall be mounted above ceilings, within walls or in any other locations.

Passive equipment and materials shall be 1,000 MHz.

7.1 SMATV Video System Performance Requirements

Distribution of the SMATV video system shall be balanced to provide each video WAO location

with the minimum acceptable carrier signal level for any CATV channel between 2 and 80 is 3

dBmV. No visual carrier shall differ from an adjacent carrier by more than 3dB. The maximum

difference between the highest and lowest visual carrier levels shall not exceed 13dB. At each

video WAO location 15 dBmV at channel 80 and 12 dBmV at channel 2 will be the maximum

allowed output. The minimum level at any output is 4 dBmV at channel 80 and 1 dBmV at

channel 2.

Minimum C/N ratio shall be 45 dB at the end of the horizontal run. Composite Second Order

(CSO) shall not exceed 55 dB at the end of the horizontal run. Composite Triple Beat (CTB)

shall not exceed 55 dB at the end of the horizontal run. Hum to Carrier shall not exceed 3% at

diplexer located in the amplifier in the TR where the optical fiber feed is located. Each

amplifier shall have all electronics for 5-42 Mhz return-capability installed, configured and

balanced.

7.2 Academic and Administrative Buildings

UCONN’s SMATV video system in academic and administrative buildings requires amplifiers and

passive electronics. The design of the SMATV video system in these locations is required to

meet the specified performance levels for signal at each video WAO location.

7.3 Student Housing

UCONN’s SMATV video system in residence halls or apartment buildings require interdiction taps

to provide service to all video WAO locations. UNIVERSITY ITS controls interdiction units using

an automated system.

Interdiction units require line-powered 60VAC for operation, and require additional internal

directional couplers, pads and equalizers to be correctly configured and installed for operation.

Interdiction units have specific, manufacturer recommended operational windows for input and

output levels for proper operation.

In cases where one residence unit may require multiple drops, a splitter may be installed in the

TR, in close proximity to the VMIU. Layout of splitter and cable management shall be presented

prior to installation and approved by UNIVERSITY ITS. Drop amplifiers are not permitted to

extend horizontal coaxial lengths unless approved by UNIVERSITY ITS in writing.

Power passing taps shall be used to provide signal and power to each VMIU. In cases where a

single VMIU port feeds multiple horizontal runs, all performance requirements at the WAO

locations shall be met. Length of the cable runs shall be considered in the design due to the

limited output levels of the interdiction devices. Determining maximum horizontal cable length by

calculating the output levels of taps to accommodate multiple locations within each residence unit

is the responsibility of the system designer/engineer.



7.3.1 Testing Interdiction in Student Housing

UNIVERSITY ITS shall be provided with a spreadsheet of the VMIU port-to-room

assignments. This information is used to map the specific interdiction port address used

to serve a specific room and shall include: interdiction unit serial and digital numbers from

the barcode label on the housing, building name as identified by UCONN, and the

corresponding room/suite numbers as assigned by UCONN. UNIVERSITY ITS shall

receive this information at least five days prior to testing. For installations of more than

12 interdiction units, additional time will be required to input the data into the interdiction

system controller prior to operational testing.

Two operational tests will be used to verify interdiction unit configuration and operation.

One test is a visual inspection of each output port. This test is performed with a cable

ready television at the WAO. Video service is turned on and off using the management

system. The other test checks the interdiction units. Each port shall be shown to jam

channels 49-53 and 61-64. Both of these tests require a coordinated effort.

UNIVERSITY ITS will work with the installer and assist in controlling the video signal from

the head end. Both UNIVERSITY ITS and the installer will perform the inspections at the

WAOs.

7.3.2 Leakage Testing

UNIVERSITY ITS will conduct a cumulative signal leakage survey of the SMATV video

system and coaxial cable plant after installation and prior to building occupancy. The

project schedule shall accommodate time for UNIVERSITY ITS to perform leakage

testing and for the installer to correct and repair all leaks exceeding FCC regulation.

UNIVERSITY ITS will require a minimum of 3 days notice to schedule and prepare for

testing and a minimum of 1 working day for every 48 horizontal coaxial drops to perform

inspections and system testing.

UNIVERSITY ITS will provide a list of all leaks exceeding the FCC stated maximum of 20

µV/m measured at 3 meters. The contractor shall be responsible for repairing any signal

leak beyond 20 µV/m as required to be within compliance of FCC regulations. The

reported leaks shall be repaired and documentation of the repairs shall be submitted to

UNIVERSITY ITS before UCONN will accept the system as complete.

UCONN uses colored jacks in addition to location in the faceplate to identify the jack application. A white

jack or jack that matched the faceplate shall be used to identify a voice application and a green jack shall

be used to identify a LAN application. Where applicable, the top position of the faceplate shall be used for

voice, the bottom or middle position for LAN and the bottom position for SMATV video.

Each faceplate shall be identified with a 5-digit label. This format shall identify the room number and the

outlet location within the room. For example: 10102 would be room 101(10102), outlet location 2 (10102).

University of Connecticut Appendix F


WAO Faceplate Labeling

Work area outlets (WAO) shall be labeled with a 5-digit number. The number shall consist of the 3-digit

room number and the 2-digit faceplate number within the room. WAO shall be numbered starting on the

left when entering a room and continue numbering clockwise around the room. In instances where rooms

are nested within another room and denoted with a letter (see Room 106), drop the letter and continue

numbering with the left most WAO (in the subset room) and continue clockwise until the room, or suite of

rooms, is complete.

TR Termination Labeling

110 Field Terminations Each station label on the 110 wiring block shall

consist of the corresponding 5-digit WAO

faceplate label, followed by the 1-digit port

number. For example, WAO faceplate label

10102, port 1 shall be labeled 101021. Building

services shall be labeled accordingly as "FIRE"

or "ELEV 1", "ELEV 2", etc.

Patch Panel Terminations

Each port on the patch panel shall be labeled on the front with printed labels. Labels on the patch panel

shall consist of the corresponding 5-digit WAO faceplate label, followed by the 1-digit port number. For

example, WAO faceplate label 10102, port 2 shall be labeled 101022. SD

SMATV Terminations For administrative or academic installations, each

cable for the SMATV system shall be labeled with the

corresponding 5-digit WAO faceplate label and

connected to a wall-mounted F-81. UNIVERSITY ITS

will install a jumper cable from the F-81 to the tap.

In student housing, an additional label tag (Thomas & Betts TY551M) identifying the 3-digit room number

shall be fastened near the VMIU. Where multiple

drops from one apartment are connected to a

splitter, only the cable from the splitter to the VMIU

port shall have the 3-digit room number tag.
